Bling Up Your House

Ahmad Beran Key Chain Holder

Akhil Deo Taj Mahal

Evan Von Oehsen Toothbrush Holder

Now that you have mastered 3D modeling, you get to design something for you. Bling up your house - make a gift (or repair the unfixable) for you, a family member, or a best friend. You get to choose...design a customized 3D object for your house.

Suggestions:

  • Guest Bathroom Toilet Paper Holder with your Family Name and Greeting
  • Napkin Holder
  • Pencil/Pen Holder
  • Personalized Shift Knob for your Car (Your Smiling Face on your Dad's Jaguar??? Maybe Not)
  • Broken/Missing Knob Replacement for a cabinet or drawer in your house (see for example Lifehacker)
  • Sign with hooks for your keys - with message (like Leave your car key here .... #%@! &^#!)
  • Other Hanger/Hook/Tray for objects left laying around (and getting lost)

What makes it personalized:

  • Your custom design
  • Personalization - family name or "made by artist (you) initials"
  • Replaces a broken accessory with something of your own design
